Hi, I just purchased the WiFi Range Extender AC750 Model EX6100. I'm also getting the "oops" message. My problem is, I set up the extender and can not log into it because I don't have the passsword. I can't figure out how to change the password because I am unable to log onto the genie. Please help.

Hi RR-JeffP,

 

http://support.netgear.com/product/EX6100

 

Please see the user manual (page 39 of 48):

http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/EX6100/EX6100_UM_27Oct2015.pdf

and reset your EX6100 back to factory default settings.

 

Then go to page 9 and follow the setup procedures.

Connect to the _EXT network and open a web browser.

Go to mywifiext.net (make sure you are connected to only the _EXT network and no other internet connection such as your router)

Follow the on-screen setup.

 

After setup, your default credentials for mywifiext are:
user = admin
password = password

 

The password to connect to your extender's WiFi network should be the same as your router (if the box was checkmarked to make it the same as your router)
